EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the monumental moment of the Discovery of America on the 12th of May, 1492. The image depicts Christopher Columbus himself, standing tall and proud as he erects a cross on the Isle of Guanahami, now known as Cat Island in the Bahamas. With deep reverence and significance, Columbus baptizes this newfound land with the Christian name of St. Salvador. The engraving on copper by Theodor De Bry beautifully captures this historical event from centuries ago. It showcases intricate details of medieval attire worn by both Columbus and his crew members, transporting us to an era long gone but forever etched in our collective memory. Through this image, we witness not only an exploration into uncharted territories but also a collision between different cultures and civilizations. It serves as a reminder that history is complex and multifaceted; it encompasses both triumphs and tragedies. Ken Welsh's masterful work brings these black-and-white illustrations to life once again, allowing us to appreciate their artistic value while delving into our shared past. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how curiosity can drive humanity forward towards new horizons – even if those horizons come at great cost or controversy. Let this print serve as a visual portal through which we can explore the rich tapestry that is human history – one discovery at a time.
